Tm = n*db*tf*fcb*(D1/2)
This formula uses 6 Variables
Variables Used
Maximum Torque - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Maximum torque means the highest value of the net torque measured at full engine load.
Number of Bolts - Number of Bolts is simply defined as the number of bolts that are under our consideration.
Diameter of Bolt - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Bolt is the distance from the outer thread on one side to the outer thread on the other side. This is called the major diameter and will usually be the proper size of the bolt.
Thickness of Flange - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Flange is a protruded ridge, lip or rim, either external or internal, that serves to increase strength or for stabilizing and guiding the movements of a machine or its parts.
Allowable Crushing Strength of the Bolt Material - (Measured in Pascal) - Allowable Crushing Strength of the Bolt Material is the capacity of a material or structure to withstand loads tending to reduce size as opposed to tensile strength.
Pitch Circle Diameter of Bolts - (Measured in Meter) - Pitch Circle Diameter of Bolts (PCD) is the diameter of the circle which passes through the centre of all the studs, wheel bolts or wheel rim holes.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Number of Bolts: 3 --> No Conversion Required
Diameter of Bolt: 21 Millimeter --> 0.021 Meter (Check conversion ​here)
Thickness of Flange: 100 Millimeter --> 0.1 Meter (Check conversion ​here)
Allowable Crushing Strength of the Bolt Material: 2 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 2000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Pitch Circle Diameter of Bolts: 200 Millimeter --> 0.2 Meter (Check conversion ​here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Tm = n*db*tf*fcb*(D1/2) --> 3*0.021*0.1*2000000*(0.2/2)
Evaluating ... ...
Tm = 1260
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
1260 Newton Meter -->1260000 Newton Millimeter (Check conversion ​here)
FINAL ANSWER
1260000 1.3E+6 Newton Millimeter <-- Maximum Torque

What is Bolt?

A bolt is a mechanical fastener with a threaded shaft. Bolts are closely related to screws, which are also mechanical fasteners with threaded shafts. These types of fasteners are typically inserted through two parts, with aligned holes.The term bolt is usually used for a fastener which has only part of its shaft threaded. Fasteners with their entire shaft threaded are normally called screws. The unthreaded part of a bolts shaft is called the shank.
